Dear
Parents/Guardians:
My name is Elizabeth Davis and I will be your student's teacher for art! I graduated from the University of South Carolina with my BFA in Art Education in the spring of 2017. My concentration was three dimensional art and I am so glad for the opportunity to become more acquainted with this art form as I have gotten older. I grew up here in South Carolina and in Georgia and I'm glad for the opportunity to give back to the community! Here is a little more information about the classes that your student is enrolled in!
I am so glad
that you are joining us for the school year in art! I think of art as a means
of expression and while that should be fun I also take art seriously as it can
lead to learning great life skills. Art Education is important to students’
education because it teaches them critical thinking, and problem solving
skills. It is a means for exploring the various mediums through which students
can express themselves more effectively. Students should take pride in their
work and have fun creating in a safe environment.
There are
many opportunities for students to get involved here in our art classes such as
Art 1, Art 2, Art 3, and Advanced Art. It is never too late to get a start in
art. In each of these classes we will take a look into what it is to work in
drawing, painting, print-making, ceramics, and many other fields of study!
Students
will have opportunities to participate and compete in art competitions for the
school, district and state. Through our school art competition, district
competition, and State Fair. These are great opportunities as well as an end of
the school year school exhibit in which students will have the opportunity to
show off their hard work and have parents come see what every student has
worked on throughout the year.
Thank you in
advance for supporting and participating in his or her art education.
Sincerely,
